Chateau Blanc Cafe

Went for 1st time this week. I had the chicken shawarma. Very good! Everything was extremely fresh & the pita was perfect. Garlic sauce is awesome! Only thing I can say is the portion could've been slightly bigger for the price. The woman working was very nice too. I'll be back on a regular basis, highly recommend.

Party of 2 sep2033: The place is small most seating is outside. Had a friendly experience with service. The food was pretty standard and crispy hues, the pita bread was nice and warm would of liked some feta cheese but thats just a preference. They had a nice selection of Indian pastries, drinks like mango lassi which is my favorite. Anywho the food had many textures with hummus and veggie options.

This place has extremely delicious falafel pita 🥙 sandwiches. When I pass by this store I love to even smell the falafel sandwich. The staff are very nice and helpful. I also have had lamb and beef pita sandwich here and it was good too. They have also a bunch of bakery options available in the storefront. The orders get ready very fast. This place has no dine-in but is located very conveniently in central Sq.

"Expensive, gross-tasting food prepared in unsanitary conditions" I'd heard mostly good things about Aleppo Palace's shwarma, but the dinner I purchased tonight was inedible! Chickpea salad/balela was BATHED IN RAW ONION (see pics) and vinegar; chicken was pink inside and had an odd texture/smell to it, despite its overall bland flavor; gagged on hummus so acidic that it smelled and tasted rancid; the last straw for me was when I spat out a short, dark human hair from a bite of the lentil rice! (Nasty!) Took a couple pictures for this review and threw everything away, it was so gross. Also, regarding sanitation: Didn't touch the pita bread I was given since it was handled "raw" by a GLOVELESS cashier who alternated osculating money/cards at the register with touching food -- no, he did not wash or sanitize his hands first. (EW!) Ample kitchen staff did not wear masks or hair restraints of any kind such as a hat, hairnet, or bandana; nor did they ask patrons to wait outside despite a group of 12+ bar-flies entering all at once into the small waiting area (3' x 4'-ish) at "bodies touching" proximity. Seemed like the perfect breeding ground for foodborne illness and COVID/flu... ...Needless to say, I am disappointed and disgusted by this experience, all around. NEVER AGAIN!

Passing though Cambridge and had heard some good things about Aleppos Palace. Stopped in and got a falafel verde platter and lentil soup. The owner was incredibly kind and welcoming, instructing the cook to give us some extra things to try in the platter as well as two delicious pistachio/tahini desserts. If I lived here id probably be there twice a week. That’s some old school class a customer service you don’t find just anywhere.

It was closed and locked, with lights on inside, at 7:45pm on a perfect Saturday evening in August. There was no sign of anyone there, and no "back soon" sign in the window. We waited for ten minutes and then left, the kids were so disappointed! Giving two stars because I had the ice cream here once before and it was tasty. But such a bummer to talk it up to the kids and then have to go home empty handed.

Anyone who’s gives this place anything above a 3 star review was definitely drinking at one of the bars nearby. Ironic how this place is halal but is mostly (and should only be) consumed by drunk people. The lamb is mediocre, the sandwiches come out cold, the staff is somewhat lost about their products, and the food is definitely on the pricier side and considered expensive for what you’re getting. It’s a 3 star instead of a 2 only because if this was the only option available (sometimes it is when it’s super late), I wouldn’t be opposed to going.
